Our hostel manager Ann and her staff will give you a warm Irish welcome when you arrive at Errigal Hostel.

The showers were not warm, which was disappointing after long days hiking in the rain. I understand they used to be too hot, now they are too cold.
Kitchen is awesome-well stocked and easy to use with others. I recommend getting a couple more knives.
Wish it would tell you online when large kid groups are staying as they are very loud and change the whole feeling of the hostel. We would not have stayed if the kid group had been there throughout our stay as they were up very late and very loud.
